Chapter 125 The Towering Building is About to Collapse
Hearing the words of Chi Ri Xing Guan, the elders present were momentarily bewildered and doubtful, wondering if they had misheard or if Chi Ri Xing Guan's primordial spirit had been affected in some way, causing him to speak nonsense.
Seeing Sun Changlao and the others either bewildered or dazed, Chi Ri Xing Guan briefly explained what had happened in The Way of the Extraordinary dungeon. In the end, he stirred his soul power and emphasized, "You are well aware of how much mental burden it places on you to forcibly devour the spiritual bodies of experts of the same level. The fusion failed, and the wills of the Wind and Thunder Gods are pulling and influencing each other in the same body, leading to mental confusion and loss of reason."
"The characteristics of Thunder spiritual power are violent and overbearing. Without the restraint of reason, they will destroy everything they see." He looked at his own fragments and said, "I am the example."
Only then did Hong Ying Changlao and the others realize the seriousness of the situation. Their minds buzzed, and compared to the mental breakdown of the Wind and Thunder Gods, the return of Da Changlao Chi Ri Xing Guan to The Way of the Extraordinary seemed insignificant, a minor matter.
The loss of a peak Overlord was not a major blow to the Lawful faction, but the two Chief Executives of Heavenly Punishment were both driven mad.
Being forced by The Way of the Extraordinary to the point of causing world chaos, and with the slightest carelessness, order could collapse.
Zhao Changlao frowned, narrowed his eyes, and sighed, "In that case, that Fallen One was deliberately thrown out as bait by the Evil faction. Asking Da Changlao to go to Heavenly Punishment to purify the barrier-breakers was also part of the Evil faction's plan. They not only wanted to destroy the two Chief Executives, but also wanted to take the opportunity to eliminate Da Changlao."
Speaking of which, he gnashed his teeth, "Before Ling Tuo fell, he once followed the elders in the sect to study spells, including Chi Ri Xing Guan. There was no formal master-disciple relationship, but there was the substance of it."
"Stop talking nonsense, Sun Changlao, go inform the Sect Leader. I'll make a trip to the Five Elements Alliance headquarters. Hong Ying, take Da Changlao's primordial spirit to the Xie family and beg the Xie family's ancestor to help reshape his physical body."
Sun Changlao looked anxious and was deeply grieved, "Boreas, you're so confused..."
Suddenly, a The Way of the Extraordinary notification sound came from everyone's ears.
Ding! Thunder God, Boreas, morality value cleared. Killing both can obtain generous rewards!
In the Marshal's study, Hui Chang was shaking a goblet, earnestly trying to persuade the Marshal to abandon darkness and seek light, and to support the Lord of the Sun with him. Suddenly, a The Way of the Extraordinary notification sound came to his ears, and the hand shaking the goblet suddenly froze.
The usually cynical Hui Chang revealed a solemnity and seriousness in his eyes that he had never shown before.
Fu Qingxuan's face changed drastically. Hui Chang muttered, "The Thunder God and Boreas have completely torn their faces."
Both Fu Qingxuan and Hui Chang felt a sense of impending doom. Even a Demigod being wanted by The Way of the Extraordinary was extremely dangerous.
Firstly, The Way of the Extraordinary's wanted notice could make the Demigods of the Evil faction reach a consensus and unite into a single force, which even a faction war might not be able to achieve.
Secondly, even the Lawful faction would have Demigods tempted by the rewards, because the rewards for wanting a Demigod would inevitably be items and props of the same level.
The morality values of the two Chief Executives of Heavenly Punishment being cleared at this time was undoubtedly devastating for the Lawful faction.
Zhang Yuanqing, who was concentrating on condensing the power to strike the Sun God into a Chang blade and confronting the Three Daos Mountain Goddess with weapons in the Mo Sect's mechanical city, suddenly froze with a dazed and astonished expression.
The golden Chang sword that had pierced towards him with deadly accuracy deviated and brushed past his neck.
The Three Daos Mountain Goddess frowned her delicate eyebrows and scolded softly, "What are you distracted by?"
Zhang Yuanqing had a ghostly look on his face and muttered, "The two Chief Executives of Heavenly Punishment are wanted by The Way of the Extraordinary. What happened? Why are the two Chief Executives wanted by The Way of the Extraordinary?"
"Being wanted by The Way of the Extraordinary is naturally because the morality value is cleared, but why would it be cleared! And why are the two Chief Executives cleared at the same time? He only secluded himself in The Way of the Extraordinary for two days, not two years! What earth-shattering changes have happened outside?"
The Three Daos Mountain Goddess didn't disturb the dazed Zhang Yuanqing, after all, this was her disciple whom she had obtained in her later years, and a disciple was like a son.
She cast a questioning look at another disciple. Silver Radiance Princess raised a small loudspeaker, "The two Chief Executives of Heavenly Punishment are Human Immortals. Their morality values being cleared will result in a wanted notice from The Way of the Extraordinary. The Way of the Extraordinary has issued a high reward and publicly wanted the two!"
The Three Daos Mountain Goddess nodded slightly and looked at Zhang Yuanqing, "Are there any other Human Immortals being wanted?"
Zhang Yuanqing shook his head!
The Three Daos Mountain Goddess concluded, "Then it must be that the two Human Immortals had a dispute, causing countless mortal deaths and injuries."
"Goddess is right, but at this moment when the Demonic path is rampant, the two Human Immortals being wanted by The Way of the Extraordinary makes this disciple fear that there is more to this matter. The outside world is probably in great danger." Zhang Yuanqing bowed and saluted, "This disciple will return for a while!"
After saying that, his figure disappeared out of thin air before the eyes of the Three Daos Mountain Goddess and Silver Radiance Princess. Silver Radiance Princess raised a small loudspeaker, "Master, this kid has been following you for a few days, and he's been spouting a lot of colloquialisms!"
She didn't care at all about the mortal world, even if the world was destroyed, it had nothing to do with her, an Yin-Yang being who had been dead for many years.
On the other hand, a hint of worry flashed between the eyebrows of the Three Daos Mountain Goddess, "The Demonic path is rampant, and the common people will suffer!"
Songhai!
In the drafting room of Fu Family Bay, Xia Hou Si Aotian was biting his pen, drawing the mechanical drawings brought by the Xia Hou family's scholar. Xia Hou Si Aotian heard The Way of the Extraordinary's notification sound in his ears. Xia Hou Ao Xuetian's eyes were blurred, and he bit his pen, vaguely mocking, "Thunder God and Boreas, what kind of sleeping dragons and phoenixes are they? Have I ever seen such fools?"
An elder of the clan trembled and stuttered, "Scholar Aotian, these are the The Way of the Extraordinary IDs of the two Chief Executives of Heavenly Punishment Headquarters. Don't you usually pay attention in the common sense class!"
Crack! The pen in Xia Hou Aotian's mouth broke into two pieces!
Ding! Thunder God and Boreas, morality value cleared. Killing both can obtain generous rewards!
Fu Qingyang, who was working at his desk in the study, suddenly raised his head, his pupils contracting sharply.
At this moment, everyone, including those in The Way of the Extraordinary dungeon, whether Transcendent or Saint, whether Overlord or Demigod, received The Way of the Extraordinary notification sound, global wanted!
In Beijing, the century-old Bodhi tree planted in the backyard of Linggan Temple rustled and swayed, its branches and leaves drifting with wisps of green light, condensing into a vague male face in the canopy. He looked into the distance for a moment and soared into the sky, transforming into a green Chang rainbow that streaked across the sky.
At the same time, in a valley on the outskirts of Beijing, an old man with gray hair sank into the ground, continuously descending until the depths of the earth that human tools could not explore, rushing along the earth veins towards the address given by The Way of the Extraordinary. Dark clouds rolled and rapidly passed through the sky, disappearing into the distance, with torrential rain pouring down wherever they went.
In the distant Northwest, the Holy Mountain of the Soldiers Sect rumbled and vibrated, with earth and rocks rolling down like an earthquake. Everyone in the Soldiers Sect Headquarters...
The captivated demons all sensed the awakening of a terrifying aura, like a sleeping dragon awakening, bringing a trembling fear to the surrounding creatures.
The Four Heavenly Kings and the Silver Moon God General rushed out of their houses and gathered on the viewing platform on the mountainside.
The Silver Moon God General's expression was excited and fearful: "Shura is about to awaken!"
The Extermination Heavenly King had a similar expression, licking his lips!
A Demigod-level wanted notice had never appeared in the hundred years since The Way of the Extraordinary was born. The two Chief Executives of Heavenly Punishment were simply sending equipment to Shura.
After a moment, the shaking of the Holy Mountain stopped, and the aura slowly subsided, falling back into slumber. The Extermination Heavenly King was full of disappointment, confusion, and unwillingness: "Why doesn't Shura even like Demigod-level rewards?"
He couldn't understand. The Fear Heavenly King stood with his hands behind his back and chuckled softly. "That was never prepared for Shura's enemy. Shura was just startled by the aura of the same level. You wait, the good show is still to come."
The Demon Eye Heavenly King looked vigilant: "What good show?"
The Fear Heavenly King turned his head to look at him, put away his smile, and said lightly, "I won't tell you! Lest you inform someone in the Lawful faction. Don't think I don't know what you did in the Dionysus Club's dungeon a few days ago!"
New Covenant City.
Zhang Yuanqing returned to reality and rushed out of the bedroom without saying a word, straight to Winnie. Beren's office. Along the way, it was chaotic. The members of Heavenly Punishment were headless flies, running back and forth, either gathering together for heated discussions or shouting loudly.
He passed through the major office areas and barged straight into Winnie's office, finding the prosecutor with a gloomy face, dialing the phone over and over again.
Miss, and Chris were pacing around in panic. The fish tank was placed on the coffee table, and the little fish Ruth looked left and right, afraid to speak.
"What's going on?" Zhang Yuanqing asked bluntly. "Why are the two Chief Executives of Headquarters wanted by The Way of the Extraordinary!"
Winnie put down the landline and took a deep breath, wording her words for a long time, "The Heavenly Punishment Headquarters in Hua City suffered a devastating blow. Countless members died, including Overlords. Communications are interrupted. I'm trying my best to contact those colleagues who survived and escaped from Headquarters!"
Zhang Yuanqing was shocked: "The Evil faction attacked Heavenly Punishment Headquarters?"
Winnie's thin lips were tightly pursed. Zhang Yuanqing kept asking questions. Chris on the side shouted impatiently, "It was Chief Executives Boreas and the Thunder God..."
Zhang Yuanqing stood there in a daze for a long time without reacting, without saying a word. After a long time, he heard his own trembling voice, "Why, why?"
Winnie closed her eyes and shook her head.
The little fish Ruth timidly said, "Hua City is in chaos. The two Chief Executives are wantonly killing in the city. No one dares to stop them. We are very anxious but helpless and can only wait for the Demigods of the Lawful faction to take action to quell the situation!"
Zhang Yuanqing turned around and left, took out his phone and dialed Hui Chang's number.
The voice prompt said that Hui Chang had shut down. He had already rushed to Hua City to deal with it. Zhang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief instead.
Although he wanted to know the first-hand information, his level was too low, and knowing it or not was irrelevant to the overall situation. Compared to that, it was most important that Hui Chang could rush to the scene as soon as possible.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yuanqing then dialed Fu Qingyang's phone.
The ringtone rang for a long time before Fu Qingyang answered, "You want to ask about what happened at Heavenly Punishment Headquarters, right?"
"Boss, you know?" Zhang Yuanqing's spirit was lifted.
"I was in a meeting just now. The Great Elder of Taiyi Sect was on the scene." Fu Qingyang relayed everything he heard at the meeting to his confidant!
After listening, Zhang Yuanqing immediately fell into a mental storm. As a veteran of the New Covenant City faction war, he suddenly had a sense of "So that's how it is" and "Damn, that's actually how it is," along with a feeling of horror and belated realization.
From the day that the Soldiers Sect, the Dark Night Rose, and the Southern School sent Saint teams to New Covenant City, Ling Tuo was already aiming at the two Chief Executives. The Saint teams were just bait. Everything was to make his explosion reasonable, and then take advantage of the situation to send this time bomb to the Thunder Pool.
Of course, Zhang Yuanqing still had many doubts. How did the Evil faction know that the Wind and Thunder dual professions could be practiced together? Why did Boreas know about the Thunder God but the Thunder God didn't know about Boreas?
Why would Boreas easily believe the Evil faction? Was she really blinded by the promotion?
Zhang Yuanqing reported the situation at Heavenly Punishment Headquarters to Fu Qingyang and said, drawing a cold breath, "Boss, why do I feel like the Lawful faction is going to be finished? If the two Chief Executives can't be saved, they can only be packaged and sent back to The Way of the Extraordinary. Heavenly Punishment Headquarters is destroyed, and many Overlords and Saints have died. If Demigods also fall during the process of suppressing the two Chief Executives, wouldn't that be a major collapse of the Lawful faction!"
Fu Qingyang was silent for a few seconds and said lightly, "With The Way of the Extraordinary rewarding the two Chief Executives, they haven't left us. They're just continuing to protect order in a different way. The rewards from The Way of the Extraordinary must be generous. Hunting down the Wind and Thunder dual gods and exchanging them for huge rewards can indeed make up for some of the losses, but dual-profession Demigods are probably not that easy to hunt!"
Zhang Yuanqing smiled bitterly, "If the Lawful faction collapses, I'll defect to the Soldiers Sect and become a Heavenly King."
